HOW TO REMOVE STRIPPED JETS IN JUST ABOUT ANY SMALL ENGINE CARBURETOR

Today we continue the 300 arctic cat ATV carburetor repair in this video I will show you how to properly remove the idle pilot jet using a conical fluted screw extractor

[alepecchio]

Exclent tip my friend. Went and got me the extractor and after heating up the idle jet it finally came out from a 40 year old Suzuki carb

Thanks I used your method and got out my stripped jet on my bt200x. Ordered the screw through amazon and worked like a charm. About to go test out my stage 1 kit now 👌🏻

Thank you thank you thank you Bought the identical tool off Amazon and had a very easy time getting a stuck jet out of a old tractor carb

[butler]

Wow, that is the first time I have seen that process and that tool. Fabulous information. Thanks for the video.

Just had this issue on an old dirty Rochester where one of the jets was super stuck hard and the screw slow was damaged, I couldn't even get a screw driver to bite on it, definitely gonna find an extractor like this

Nice!!! I'm in the same predicament and will try my extracting drill bit first and may try this tool as well. My confidence level went up when I see the piece is made from Germany (good steel) vs. crap China steel/product.

I've had to use easy out..but had to replace the jet..better than replacing the carburetor..i need one of those..👍👍👍

[TheRustyRooster]

Thanks for the info. I've been using the fluted ez-outs to do this but feel they expand the jet making it harder to remove. That type looks like the answer to my future jet removal problems. BIG THANKS!

Thanks for the update. The carb cleaned up very nice. As usual: YOU ARE THE MAN when it comes to repair knowledge.

Very nice tool Jeremy! I have used the other type of easy out or screw extractors but none like this one! I will make sure that I get one! Thanks for the heads up! Keep those videos coming!

[johncollins]

Excellent! I'm sure that's helped a lot of pp.
I have a STUCK emulsion tube on a Honda. The main net came out no problem but even after wd 40 shower, sonic bath and inverted Allen key fulcrumed on the roof of the throat it won't move!

Any small engine mechanic needs that tool to add to their carburetor tool kit it is a must

I did this semi-successfully with a H.F 10$ "Screw Extractor Set" to a Kei-Hun Carb on a 1991 Honda GXV 390. 1) *If you drill too deep you will most likely destroy the nozzle, so expect to replace it* 2) The #1 Screw extractor flexed, so I used the #2 size. Which didn't work without lightly torching the aluminum neck. EDIT: Neck cracked, have to epoxy

Hi MowerMedic1 I have an issue and I hope you might have a trick of the trade to help deal with it. I am trying to clean the original carb on a Kawasaki fb460v (12.5 hp on a small exmark walkbehind). I am having a problem with what I believe is the emulsion tube. I was able to remove what I believe is called the main jet (it was slotted for a screwdriver). Then I can see the bottom of the emulsion tube. On another video I watched the emulsion tube had a slot for a screwdriver however the one I have does not have a slot for a screwdriver. I have tried grabbing it with a pick, I have tried pushing on the tip of the emulsion tube that is near the butterflies...but I can not get it to budge. Any suggestions you might have would be appreciated. Thanks.

Great video Jeremy. I use tapered easy-outs but this tool looks great. I have the snap on ones.

[weeeves]

Yes, finding the right sized screwdriver is important but the tip design is equally as important. Ideally, you want to be using a hollow ground screwdriver, like the ones used by gunsmiths (Briggs & Stratton makes one specifically for jets) which eliminates the possibility of cam out.

Can you order any carb kit or are there like specific ones for different carbs

[conspiracytherapist]

I just found a small torx bit bites into the brass as well.

[motoman]

Thank you im going to get the truck to stop buy the shop. Very handy tool

[dj]

Great video. Do you have the snap-on part # for the screw extractor? Thanks
